I don't get it

One day someone misspelled it and then someone else did thinking was cool. Its UBERGHEY.

i think it's kinda an inside joke.... probly started out in online gaming like everything else like n00b and stuff of that sort. My bro started me doing it... cuz on messenger he's always like this is teh ghey, so it just kind of stuck to meh

w00t w3 R 1337 hAx0rZ!!!11one

you know how I know your ghey? you use words like uberghey

(im joking w/ ya super...I just thought it would be fun to make up my own line like on 40 year old virgin hehe)

You dont need parens I know how you are.

pwnd = the p is close to the o. easy mistake.
ghey = games filter the word gay (happy) alot. so yeah.
teh = spelling error.
newbie = noob = nub = newb = gamer insult.

I'd say n00b is more a novice.

hax0r=hacker
r0x0r=cool person
leet=1337=this language using numbers as letters; also means "cool" or "awesome"

Here you go

1. teh

Orginally started off as a typo for "the", but recently has changed a bit in meaning. "Teh" still means "the", however, it is mostly used in the same manner that spanish speaking people use the word "El".

"I got two cookies with teh whipped cream!" makes sense, but "I got two cookies with the whipped cream!" doesn't. Get what I mean?

you're all n00b1375! ... (im translating into english so u can understand what im saying, lol ) the whole leet speak came from the game counter-strike basically... counter-strike is one of the longest running games and is a add-on to Half-life... i think i started playing CS back when i was 10... i dunno. after many updates of CS from beta (yah i played beta too.) to the current CS:S. i still remember the day when 1.5 rolled out and totally changed the way CS works with the aiming.

r0x0r doesnt mean cool person - it means rock basically. but u dont just say r0x0r by it self. u say like i r0x0r j00 s0x0rz! kinda thing... i've played CS on and off for 8 years... mmm :-/

and believe it or not, now and days if u speak teh leet in CS u get flamed pretty bad.

wow I cant believe this topic got so indepth lol. I think the next big word thing is gonna be YAG they say it all the time on maxim radio.

sorry buddy .. .but leet speak has been around WAY before counter strike. it really kind of started in the hacker/wares comunity back in the BBS days, before the internet was really around. words like Teh kind of spawed off from chat rooms back in the day, where people would make lots of typing mistakes. then it evolved into what it is today .

Like the word m00t created in these forums. Not to many people say it, but you see it sometimes.

i thought they used pretty proper english back in the day of the old forums when internet first started kicking :-/ well i might've been wrong about when it started but im pretty shure that CS had alot to do on how fast it spread.

m00t. whatever happend to him?

noob use to be noobie back in the day, but I guess the ie became uncool

all your base are belong to us

so-n-so pwned so-n-so2


a couple of the words used are also taken from programming errors in games where there were mispelled words that displayed in the game.

this whole thing isn't a result of just one game, it came from many many games.

1337 (or leet) does not mean cool nor awesome, rather, it is short for Elite, or being the best at something (I.E 1337 haxx0rz!!!!!1111onetoothreefor, or you are the Elite hacker)
